Walker, Department of Community Medicine and Health Care, University of Connecticut, School of Medicine^ Farmington, Connecticut PREFACE The Fogarty International Center was established in 1968 as a memorial to the late Congressman John E. Fogarty from Rhode Island. It had been Mr. Fogarty’s desire to create within the National Institutes of Health a center for research in biology and medicine dedicated to international cooperation and collaboration in the interest of the health of mankind. The Fogarty International Center is a unique resource within the Federal establishment, providing a base for expansion of America’s health research and health care to lands abroad and for bringing the talents and resources of other nations to bear upon the many and varied health problems of the United States. As an institution for advanced study, the Fogarty International Center has embraced the major themes of medical education, environmental health, societal factors influencing health and disease, geographic health problems, international health research and education, and preventive medicine. Our commitment to the study of preventive aspects of human disease is expressed in the forthcoming Fogarty International Center Series on Preventive Medicine. Improvement in the health status of the American people will depend, in great measure, on the design and application of programs which place major emphasis on the preventive aspects of human disease. Although health authorities generally agree with this thesis, there is need for more precise definition of effective methods and programs of prevention, financial resources required to implement these pro- grams, and priorities to be assigned to research in preventive methodology. The need to assemble expertise in this field to elucidate mechanisms whereby the full impact of preventive medicine may be brought to bear on the solution of America’s major health problems has been expressed repeatedly in public statements by leaders throughout the health field. In response to this need, the Fogarty International Center initiated a series of comprehensive studies of preventive medicine in order to review and evaluate the state of the art of prevention and control of human diseases, to identify deficiencies in knowledge requiring further research, including analysis of financial resources, preventive techniques, and manpower, and to recognize problems in application of preventive methods and suggest corrective action. In an effort to contribute to the educational aspects of preventive medicine, the Fogarty International Center has undertaken a cooperative program with the Association of Teachers of Preventive Medicine to create resource material to assist in the administration, teaching, research, and service responsibilities among departments of preventive medicine, to enhance collaborative activities between departments of preventive medicine and other academic units of health science schools, and to propose national programs of teaching, research, and service in preventive medicine. Topics to be given major emphasis include the role of behavioral sciences in preventive medicine, academic relationships between depart- ments of preventive medicine and schools of public health, international and viii /Prevention in Primary Care extramural teaching and research opportunities in preventive medicine, teaching resources of departments, health education, primary care and family medicine, the role of ancillary health personnel in the health care delivery systems, and consumer participation in health care delivery. This monograph on Preventive and Community Medicine in Primary Care is part of the Fogarty International Center Series on the Teaching of Preventive Medicine. The growing emphasis on preventive services has focused attention on the interests and responsibilities shared by practitioners of primary care and pre- ventive medicine specialists. It is obvious that the knowledge developed in preven- tion research will be applied in practice through the primary care disciplines of family medicine, pediatrics, internal medicine and obstetrics. Accordingly, it will be necessary for the educational process to promote the integration of these dis- ciplines with preventive medicine teaching in the development of new knowledge, the delivery of preventive services and evaluation of the health care system. This monograph attempts to analyze ways in which this integration can be accomplished. Milo D.
